Thursdays are marathon days for this rock jock. I'm in before 6 a.m. to talk with the good folks at Eyewitness News. Most weeks it's all fun and games. This week was different. On my way in that morning, I battled a semi seemingly driven by the ghost of Dale Sr...

It was an early morning for this cowboy. Last night I was lucky enough to introduce American English at the Boone County Fair. These guys nail the Beatle's singing, playing and on-stage antics. Before the concert began, I had the honor of meeting the newly crowned Boone County Queen, the two runners-up and the boys in the band...

Another Thursday, another appointment with the Eyewitness News morning show. We're all getting ready for the big July 4th holiday weekend. We talked about the big fireworks throughout the stateline, drinking wine from a shoe and being offered a candy bar from a stranger's cowboy boot...

The World Cup is here and 6.97 billion people are amped about it. I joined Eyewitness News WTVO Channel 17 this morning and discussed today's match between Team USA and Germany. We then made a lateral kick in topics to the big party in town Saturday and we made a header into Field of Blues talk with Matt and Candice...

The phrase 'World's Greatest...' gets thrown around a lot. Michael Jordan was the world's greatest basketball player. Muhammad Ali, the world's greatest boxer. Al, the world's greatest Bundy. You get the idea. Check out this first pitch I threw at Aviators Stadium on Friday Eagle Night...

Sure you can look at your calendar to see what day it is, but if you turn your TV on as you rise and shine and see my face you know it's Thursday. That or you're having a nightmare that you can't escape. I spoke with Matt Rodewald and Candice King about Bear Mania 2014, footballs full of drugs, margaritas and me along with a great bluesman benefit coming up this weekend...

Woke up early today to join Eyewitness News Channel 17's morning hi-jinx. We tackled some tough subjects today including bear fever, standing on a corner in Winslow, Arizona, Mt. Meatmore, and Matt Rodewald and Candice King rip open some old emotional wounds of mine...

Every Thursday morning I join Evelyn Wilkerson from FOX39 for a short gabfest. Today we talked about Rockford Airfest. Wingwalking, loopty-loops and airsickness bags. We cover it all. Check out my shirt too. It's pretty righteous.

Bill Maher really paved the way for modern political humor. Nowadays guys like Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert get most of the spotlight, but Bill brought it to the small screen in the early 90s with 'Politically Incorrect.' Now he is the host of 'Real Time with Bill Maher' on HBO...

I must say that it's a pleasant change to be featured on Eyewitness News as a guest and not a 'person of interest.' Today, I joined Matt Rodewald and Candice King for our regular Thursday morning roundtable. We talked about who partied hardest over the holiday weekend and how to make steaks disappear...
